Beguiled at the Wedding

Castle Keyvnor.. That magical place where anything can happen with the spirits, pixies and other worldly characters help bring the guest together or at least make mischief! Three great authors bring their stories to life as men and women attend a summer wedding at the castle. Miss Pennick & the Pixie's Poem by Deb Marlowe Finally having achieved her dream of opening a bookstore, Miss Lowenna Pennick is faced with printer Ruan thinking her shop's space was his. But with some villains wanting to do harm to Ruan for his good deeds of helping young readers, the pair team up together. With the help of a sweet Pixie, Puff, and a little magic, it seems these two might find their happy ever after too! Sweet! A Spirited Courtship by Jane Charles A wonderful story of true love, almost not given a chance due to gossip being overheard. But three determined ghost sentenced to a life stuck in the castle until they can bring true love to a couple. Diana and James had begun to develop a deep love for each other, until she overheard some of Jame's friends talking. She quickly breaks off their courtship and tries to nurse her broken heart. But a wedding she has to attend at neighboring Castle Keyvnor brings them back together. As much as they try to avoid each other three enchanting ghosts are determined to bring them together. Fun, delightful, full of humor but touching, I loved their journey and could not wait to see what happened! Written in the Stars by Virginia Heath Second chances rarely come around, but it seems possible with Miss Cecily Grimshaw and Capt Spencer Tremayne. Five years ago they seemed to find each other and fall in love quickly and their happy ever after was destined. But that was vanquished by an unexpected happening. Now they are coming into contact again and the wrongs of the past are trying to be righted by the entities at Castle Keynor. Could they find that true love they had and lost? Loved this story and was delightful!

All three stories were full of the mystical and love, and at points made me cry. Miss Penneck and the Pixie's Poem - Deb Marlowe - Lowenna was kind and quite willing to help Ruan. He was glad for the assistance but very protective of Lowenna and her livelihood. They attraction was instant and sweet. The Pixie was also a sweet and interesting character as she figured out her own purpose in life. A Spirited Courtship - Jane Charles - This story had me in tears several times. It was a second-chance/reunion at love story for Diana and James. Both were wonderful characters and quite willing to help out some ghosts end their torturous eternity. The ghosts were annoying but very much touched my heart. Written in the Stars - Virginia Heath - Another second-chance story/reunion story. This story had divine intervention, Pixies, ghosts, and magic. Cecily was strong as she tried to improve her situation despite all her bad luck. Spencer was a broken man and was more than willing to work out the issues. I recommend this collection and look forward to reading Books 1 and 3. I received an ARC of this collection, and this is my unsolicited review.
